Abstract
The present disclosure provides a device for de-icing an air inlet lip of an aircraft nacelle. The device includes a pre-exchanger, an intake orifice of taking in low-pressure air downstream from a fan, and two high-pressure air intake orifices downstream from a compressor in addition to controlled valves and check valves installed in an air flow network. In particular, the pre-exchanger includes a low-pressure air outlet capable of opening into the air inlet lip of the aircraft nacelle via a pipe of the air flow network.
